| Show some compassionate liberalism for Andy for crying out loud!!! |
|
I am astounded that out of a community of 68,000 registered users, 1000 of us cannot cough up a lousy $50 to help Andy through his medical crises. This request for help has been going on for a couple of days, and only 12 grand has been raised. The post that is tracking the contributions has over 700 posts.
QUIT BEING SO FUCKING CHEAP AND PUT SOME COMPASSION WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS DU.
$50 bucks is nothing. Its one night out at dinner, or a couple of movies. We are talking about helping someone save their life.
GET WITH IT!!!

My check is in the mail. I just wish I could give more,...well,...I wish I could take care of the whole bill but am having struggles keeping up with my own.
To Andy :hug:

I do hope that people who can afford it will donate, but it's extremely poor form to call people "fucking cheap" when some are suffering through tough times.

| 3. You may turn off a lot of folks with that post of yours. |
|
I'm hoping we get the 25K too but you shouldn't be so mean.

| 4. I think gathering $12,000 from strangers in no time is amazing |
|

| 5. You might get a better response if you try the Sally Struthers method. |

Calling people "fucking cheap" is pretty fucking rude.
